Great point and when you consider that most people are getting some of the worse mileage when driving stop light to stop light looking for gas, they would be better served in buying premium at the nearest station and saving the time.

So what do a couple of young Rock Stars like yourselves drive? We all know about my old beaters...

Peace,

Nominate me

In the same vein, how bout the people who drive for 20 minutes in parking lots looking for a spot 50 feet closer. No wonder people are broke and poor. Nothing really astounds me anymore.

That's why I drive when we go anywhere: park far from the poors, keeps us thin, and the chariot remains smooth.

Nominate Me,

Well Said Sir...

We also park in the back 40 acres and hold our kids hands as we walk through the parking lot.

I am going to make a personal comment...

I honestly have wondered if you were a retired wrestler with your handle... so fyi... when I see your posts, I instantly think of a Big Texan with a Belt and a wife with a whip...

Best to you and yours,

~SEG

It was a joke he had at the end of his career about saying to the camera... "nominate me" or so I remember it. Anyway... I don't actually think you are him. But I always think of them when you post.

Microfiller or boozer brewer... you decide... For 10k you can make whitelighting or some E-100... mix it with a flex fuel car and you have one happy Irishman...

@ SEG

The kid is still in a stroller I am therefore required to stop moving cars by staring into the eyes of the driver as we hike across the lot.

My first post was on the ouster of Chuck Prince and I signed off -Nominate me (as in for the job). I was a high school wrestler, or "wrassler" if you are over the age of 60. On top of that, where I am at, while not Dallas, is a place overrun with huge belt buckles...my wife with a whip? Not unless it is my birthday.

Now I envision Nom as a 250lb bulldogger and SEG as a Teva-wearing granola... good work, SEG.


Stupid Equity Guy

Calgary,

Yikes...lol, I don't wear Teva's (never). I am closer to the Bull Dog view (over 6 ft and over 200 pounds). I used to be a Firefighter in an earlier life. I love to find a fight where the underdog is way over matched... and wade into it tossing the expected winners out of the way... at least thats my approach in life. I personally find great pleasure in annoying bullies...

Best,

@ Schmooze

5'11", 180lbs...and I despise rodeos. Although, I do happen to have yearly ringside tickets to the National Finals Rodeo in Vegas. They are for sale to the highest bidder if any of you are interested.

I invariably get comped seats to the rodeo at the Calgary Stampede. There's nothing like getting loaded and scorched in 90-degree, blue-sky weather in early July on someone else's tab.

But 10 days worth is all the cowboying I can handle in a year.

Speaking of which, I should probably drop a few so I can get into my Wranglers in another 2 months.

Calgary, your July boozefest reminds me of many a trip out to Indianapolis for the Brickyard, where the sober stick out like an albino at the Apollo

A couple of Texan buddies were up for Stampede a few years ago. They thought it was going to be like a basic State Fair. After Day 3, the comments were along the lines of "Holy fuck, you guys drink a lot! And you start early in the day too! And you don't stop!" There isn't an open hotel room for 100 miles.

I tend to be one big hurtin' unit by about day 6. Such is the price of carousing and schmoozing.

Parties have been curtailed in the last 10 years. Not many companies could keep up with the 100-odd thou per day Fracmaster was spending on providing breakfast. The general liabilities started piling up too - insurance claims, marriages breaking up, unplanned pregnancies. Total gongshow.
